Try removing the game from your computer, using both uninstall and then check in add/remove programs to see if it was fully removed, then re-install the game going to custom setupand adding all the features to your computer. If this doesnt work you may have a faulty game disk, so go back to your dealer and ask for there help or a new game.

Ach! Was ist los?

You can't play H2V without an XBL account. Sucks, I know, but it can't be avoided.

The account is free, at least.

Hello! Star Wars FTW. Also, join the MAW group. Please?

Go here: https://live.xbox.com/en-US/signup/GamerCard.aspx?Check=true to create a Live gamertag, then sign in to Xbox live in H2V using that gamertag.

The disc is clearly not the issue, because the game installed no sweat.

ok, there are several possible problems here:

1. Perhaps your registry or some piece of software is corrupted? - Perform a full disc error scan.
2. What happens if you try running the game during installation? - If you can at least play the game, this shows that you have a H2V capable computer.
3. Do you have any anti-virus of spyware? - Disable Windows Defender and other antivirus. If this doesnt work, disable UAC protection, and try it again.
4. Do you have the latest drivers for you network card? - Update them and see what happens.

You aren't really giving any good info here besides "can't connect to live 0X80070570." Try to be as descriptive as possible. It's probably just a generic error that can easily be fixed.

go to run and type in "dxdiag" then press the save all information button. Save teh txt file somewhere then open it. Copy and paste this notepad text into the reply box, so we can see your computer specs.

Its probably the video card. 6100's are integrated, which is NOT good enough to run Halo 2 Vista (correct me if I'm wrong)

Why would the video card make any difference if you can't login to live ? You can just turn down some of the setting to be able to play it .

I can tell you that your integrated graphics certainly isnt good, but is probably not the cause for the error. You already know that Vista is extremely demanding in virtual memory, so the biggest problem I see is 768 mb ram. This is definitely not helping. My ram is 2048mb, which should probably be a standard for computers that are running vista. I'm not looking for the entire dxdiag file, so just copy and paste your computer's specs, which should easily fit within 10000 characters.

Lastly, try this. Open the game, and from the main menu, see how long it takes for you to kick you out. (you don't have to play the game, just open it and stay at the live menu that doesnt load in.) After 10 minutes, if you are not kicked out of the game automatically, this shows your ram and graphics cards are probably not the issue. Some more information on your network card, and how you get on the internet would be nice.

Sry if this is taking long, but unless Im controlling your computer through remote desktop (which you should never let anyone do except a tech repair guy) it is hard for me to diagnose and treat a problem quickly.


BTW: The easiest thing to do is improve your computer's specs, but if you don't wanna pay money, you can always squeeze as much life out of your computer as possible. Every computer i've ever gotten is about average. So I like to play the "spec-squeezing cheap bastard" technique, where I run Bioshock on max settings 1280x1024, with a fairly weak ATI x1650.(It runs about 25fps after I fiddle with it, in other words, very little lag) I used to have integrated graphics before I bought my x1650 (512mb) for 100 bucks at bestbuy about 2 months ago. After making the switch to a dedicated 100 buck graphics card, I would recommend that you stop the squeexing as soon as you get a 100 smackers. Dedicated cards are much easier and flexible with squeezing, and you will save alot of your time. Imagine all the hours saved, from knowing that every game you install will work and run on very good settings. Just something to consider.

That sounds like a firewall / router issue. Had the same problem trying to connect to live from work. Finally reworked my connection to bypass the proxy and the firewall and presto! That message went away.

I dont think a vid driver would impact your connection to live.

Try bypassing your home router and setting widoze firewall to ignore h2v.
